The guy on the right is Ben Innes from Aberdeen. He posed for a picture to post on social media next to Seif Eldin shortly after he hijacked a plane in Cyprus whilst wearing what turned out to be a fake suicide belt. Ben didn't know it was fake at the time of course.
Cool, if morbid, photo to have afterwards, though!
That's a big smile for not knowing
I mean if you think it's your last photo, wouldn't you wanna look good
"Welp!"
He also said later that it was to try and get a better look at the bomb.
